This spooky holiday is one of my least favorite but Calvin decided he wasn't afraid of it so we got into it a little more than other years. We decorated the house a little with some homemade crafts and some decorations great grandma and grandpa no longer needed.
We carved our pumpkins at Grammie and Pap's. Calvin made a "goblin" jack-o-lantern, Caden drew on his, and Daddy made a Minion pumpkin. Mommy took pictures and tried helping along the way. We saved the seeds so we could make seeds the next night.
On Halloween I was able to aide in Cavlin's classroom where mom's helped decorate the room with spider webs and other fun decorations. It was a whole Halloween themed day. Calvin and I helped the class make safe cookies for him and his classmate to eat at their party. At the end of the day, the school had parade for all the kids to dress up and walk around the school. Great Grandparents Dennison came since they were in town the night before as well as Aunt Karen. It was a very busy and fun day at school.
Finally after a long, long time of waiting after school it was time to go trick or treating! Calvin and Caden quickly got into their costumes after dinner. They were so excited it was so hard to get a picture of them together where they were both looking at the camera. We all decided to go out this year and were about about 45 mins before we came to a house that was a bit too much for Calvin. The lights and music did him in. So we headed home and he loved handing out candy to the kids. Caden had a great time. He walked most of the time and held his bucket the whole time! He didn't get candy at every house and even tried giving his candy away when he went up to people.
I forgot to add while Calvin and I were getting pumpkin seeds ready to be baked, Caden decided it would be the perfect time to react to his snack. He is eaten it dozens of times before. Not too sure what caused the reaction but even with Benadrly in him, he wasn't going to miss out on Halloween.
